Libicnet

ConsumerSocket/ProducerTransport API: data transport library for ICN

This library is designed to provide a transport layer for applications willing to communicate using an ICN protocol stack. It also provides some useful tools showing how to use the library.

The library also provides testing applications such as producer-tests, ping-test and consumer-tests.

The iget application implements a simple HTTP request GET method to retrieve data from a corresponding web server which makes use of the producer socket.
